Arsene Wenger has begged his players to forget about the club’s struggles at Stamford Bridge and instead focus on their recent results against Chelsea.
Chelsea face Arsenal on Sunday, with the Gunners having failed to win at Stamford Bridge since a 5-3 victory in 2011.
Wenger said: “In recent years, Chelsea had great teams always, and it was always difficult to win there.
“But our record against Chelsea recently has been good. We won last year here [at the Emirates], we won in the FA Cup final, we won on penalties in the Charity Shield.
“So let’s just continue to focus on the quality of our game, and not so much where we play.”
“I believe in three days we can recover, and overall that should not be a problem,” he added. “It doesn’t bother me.
“Because we played for a long time in a back four, it’s easy for me to switch from a back three to a back four.”
